Bart obtained leave 'of the Vice-Chancellor to apply to the Lord Chancellor for permission to the Bar to make those motions befor* his Rononr on Monday, which were to have been made in the other Court, his Lordship's indisposition reildering it improbable that be will be able to attend the Court on that-day. COURT OF COMDION PLEAS, GUILDHALL, DEC. 16.. OOLDSTONE AND ANOTHER C. BARBER REAUSIONT AND OTHERS. This was an action on a policy of insurance granted by the County Fire Office, of which the defendants are the Directors. The plaintiffs in August last were furriers, carrying on business in Sarah-street, Old-street-road. About six weeks after their premises and stock in trade had been insured, they were destroyed by fire. The damages were laid at RON., and it was to recover that sum that the present action was brought. A witness named Raphael provedohatAince the fire Mr. Barber• Beaumont had admitted that there wro.no objection to fulfil the policy. In cross-examination, he stated that he was brother-in-law to' Goldstone the plaintiff. He was livingwith ids father-in-law, in Prinee's-square, in November, 1824, when a fire happened there. His father-in-law had another fire in December, 1825, when he was living in Bedford -street, Commercial-niad. Witness had a fire himself in October, 1825. He WAS insured. The watchman and several other witnesses were present at the time of the fire, and related the circumstances attending it. The plaintiffs made their• escape on a wall, almost in a state of nudity. This was the case fur the plaintiff, and concluded at half past five. The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE then inquired of Mr. Strgeant Wilde whether he intended to call witnesses. If he did, his Lord 41iip would adjourn the case until Monday (this day). Mr. Sergeant WILDS said he should certainly cull evidence to oppose that given by the plaintiffs. The Court was then adjourned. behind, the fastenings of which had been cut, and the poet-boy was holding the prisoner by the collar, and charging Min with having attempted to steal it. _ _ Mr: RAWIANSON commended the conduct of the Ambassador's servant, and remanded the prisoner until Wednesday., hoping the publicity which may be given to the circumstance will bring for ward further evidence.

On Saturday the Recorder 'of London made his Report to the King in Council of the following prisoners ender sentence of death in Newgato--namely, William Parkinson, aged 20, fur burglary ; John • Jones, alias William Bryan, 42, for being at large in this country before the expiration of the term for which he tad been sentenced to be transported ; Francis Edeson, 20, George Parker, 20, William Mansfield, 18, Sarah Wilkinson, 20, Ellen Hartnell, 18, James Bishop, 18, John Sidney Smith, 20, and George Houghton, 17, for highway robbery ; Alexander Ram, 23, .Henry. Abrahams, 24, Frederick Seville, 20, Daniel Bloomfield, 24, Charlotte Davis, 17, Amelia Roberts, 32, Patrick Riley, 26, Charles Pearce, 33, and Thomas Forster, 22, for steal ing in a dwelling-house to the value of 40e. and upwards; Chas. Thomas White, 23, for arson ; William Eckott, 19, fur house breaking; and Martha Hyatt, 50, for selling counterfeit coin, she having before been convicted of felony, and received the benefit of Clergy. His Majesty was graciously pleased to command that all the said prisoners should he respited during his Royal pleasure, ex cepting George Houghton, James Bishop, Amelia Roberts, Pa trick Riley, and Charles Thomas White, upon whom the law is left to take, its course, and they are ordered for execution on Tuesday the 2d of January nett. It will be seen by the official account of the Recorder's report, that another awful example is again shortly to be exhibited of those who have violated the laws of their country—five wretched persons are appointed to suffer death at Newgate, on the second day of the new year. Houghton and Bishop for robbing on the highway (in the neighbourhood of Bethnal-green), Mr. Fuller, a surgeon. Riley and Amelia Roberts, fin. stealing in the dwell ing house of Mr. Austin, of Clerken►vell, plate and other pro perty to the amount of 4001. ; the female was a servant to Mr. Austin, and during the Absence of her master's family she and Riley, by whom she had been frequently visited contrary to the orders of Mr. Austin, absconded, carrying sway the goods. The prisoners were at length traced to Newport, in Monmouthshire, where they were apprehended, and brought to Newgate for trial: —this is the first instance of a female being ordered for execution in London since ,the accession of his present Majesty, excepting one for murder. The last case is that of CharleeThomas White, a bookseller, in High Holborn, for setting firs to his house, the circumstances of which are well known to the public. It is said, that on the fatal intelligence of the decision of the Privy Council being communicated to him, the unhappy young man imrnedi tely fell senseless in the arms of one of his fellow prisoners, and was for some time in a state of most distressing convulsive agita tion : the paroxysm at length subsided, and he became calm and resigned. He is only 23 years of age ; had not been married many months before the event occurred for which his Ufa is for feited, and belongs to a family highly vespeeted in the neighbour hood where the fatal crime was committed. GAMBLING IN HIGH LIFE. TO THE EDITOR. Sir—Unwilling as I am, in any manner, to offer mysel to public notice, yet, as my name has unavoidably bee. mixed up in the transaction which, under the designatioi above quoted, has of late occupied some portion of the public attention ; and as I cannot reconcile it to myself to withhold any support in my power to afford, to a cause in which I have once embarked, I at,, induced, in reference to the statements which have been published with the sig natures of " A. J. O'Neill," and " Bethel! Walrond," and in expectation of the further statement which the former Gentleman intimates his intention to publish—and as the only reply which at present appears to be necessary, on be half of Mr. Auldjo—to state, that inasmuch as it is the de cided opinion of his legal advisers, that the answer which he could easily give to those statements ought to be with held until be shall have The opportunity of giving it in evidence before a Jury, he has, in deference to that opinion, determined to leave the parties in possession of all the ad vantages which they can derive from the publication of statements before trial; requesting only, that his' silent endurance of the unfounded insinuations which he is aware arc induitriously circulated against him, may not, under such circumstances, prejudice his case in the public opinion; and were it not for the confidence villa which such insinu ations are -circulated, merely because they remain uncon tradicted, it would really seem extraordinary that it should become necessary to offer any explanation of the conduct of a young man who has openly appealed to the laws of his country, against proceedings which, in the first instance, he only represented privately to friends whom he con sulted, and in whose hands he considered his honour and character would be safe; but which proceedings, in the opinion of those friends, of his legal advisers, and finally, of a Grand Jury, have been considered such as to justify him in preferring against some of the individuals con cerned, an indictment, charging them with a conspiracy to defraud him, of his money, by means of unlawful play, and which charge is in the course of being submitted to the consideration of a Jury. In reference to another part of the same transaction, and in consequence of the publication of nn extract, or supposed extract, of a letter from Mr. Ellis to Mr. Prendergast, M. P., stating that " Messrs. Gurney, and Chitty have, after a full consideration of the case, given it as their un qualified opinion, that there is nothing connected there with in the slightest degree to impeach the honour of either of the Lords Howth or Chunicarde;" also in justice to Mr. Gurney and to myself, because as I attended a con sultation at his chambers, he might otherwise impute to tne this unauthorised use of his name, as having given an opinion which he did not give, I am induced to offer an explanation of what the opinion in question really was, and by whom it was given. Mr. Auldjo's statement was laid before Mr. Chitty, and the questions put to that Learned Gentleman were—" Are there grOundx3 for proceeding by indictment for conspiracy, and against whom ?" In his opinion, he says, "Ism sa tisfied that there was no guilty participation in the fraud on'the part of Lord Chntricarde or Lord !How* , On the contrary, I think there is every fair and just ground to be lieve that they were as much the object of Plunder as Mr. Audjo, or, at most, that they were made use of as the int, struments to assist the circumvention of Mr. Auldjo.— And upon this view of the facts, I think it will be by no means expedient to adopt any criminal proceedings against Lord C. or Lord H." Upon this opinion, in which, it will be observed, the Learned Counsel answers more ques tions than have been put to him, a reference was made to Mr. Gurney, whom I attended in consultation, and who guve Ito written o ! pinion ; but in regard to whose opinion I wrote to Mr. Ellice that he, "Mr. Gurney concurs in Mr. Chitty's opinion, that in Mr. Auldjo's case there is no eviaence on which to include either of the Lor ds in any indictment." This is all that has been stated in regard to Mr. Gurney, a w n h d i ch ib tas w irubsi s s ta ted ted sbe i' t t w t e h e li n t M c7 . ll E fit i l l e ie n e tia a i nd e° m ra y i s il elf " , jea as t t i re friends who originally gavet i h m e gi o m p t i v nioLis ol u n z on which Mr. n.

Gurney I 1 planted by the writer of the Mit at; all admit, came to how' that extract, ext rac ts a'lteuZ t a ttio to ter: aelx;:i be publ ished , between the parties throughweans the whose publication Supposing it to be authentic, which I do I leave to he settled took place ; but, any thing contained in that extract to the contrary notwithstanding, I must declare the fact to be, that neither the impeachment, nor the . nindicatiou of the hananr of any party, was at all considered or consulted upon, unless, as herein stated, by implication ' arising from the question—what course it was most expedient for Mr. Auldjo to pursue, in seeking redress for the injury which he had sustained ?

MANSION-HOUSE.—Qtra ICEAL—A member of the So ciety of Friends, a few days since, appeared before the Loan Maros, fur the purpose of laying an information against a stage coachman for using abusive language, which offence is, by the 62d Geo. 11T., punishable by either fine or imprisonment. The Loan Mayon, refused to hear the complaint, it being under a penal statitte, unleits made on oath. _ _ _ The Quaker afterwards applied to Sir Peter Laurie at Guild• hall, where he met with no better success. There being, however, some doubt on the subject, the Lord Mayor consulted the City Solicitor, who drew up a use, anti laid it before the Recorder and Common Sergeant for their opinion, which was on Saturday for warded to the Mansion House, and was a. follows ! " We are opinion that the atlirmation of a Quaker cannot be admitted as legal evidence on the hearing of an information or complaint before a Magistrate for an offence, against a penal sta tute, ynless the same is expressly authorised or directed by the particular statute. In the case in question, we think that the Lord Mayor would not have been justified in convict ing the person charged . on the information of the prosecutor or - complainant." GUILD HALL. —Antonio Brennek, for many years a popular teacher of the French lailuage, residing in Bell-allay, Coleman street, and the author of several elementary works, was brought before Mr. Alderinan ANSLEY, on Saturday, in order to be passed to his parish, as a dangerous lunatic. • The lunatic was ordered to be taken care of in the Compter. He stated that his father was one of the Magistrates of Lyons, and allowed him 121. a year. . Elijah Arxer, another teacher of languages, a Spaniard by birth, but for some years a merchant of ernifietsce in the city. was brought up for examination, charged with robbing his ready furnished lodging, in Christopher-court, St. Martin's-le-Grand, of a looking-glasl, and some other trifling articles, valued altogether at 12s. _ _ The circumstance was stated to have occurred in August last, when the prisoner kicked up his room, went out; and did not re turn again. The daughter of the prosecutrix, however, met him on Tuesday, in Aldersgate-street, and induced him to go home with her to explain his conduct, when he was given into the .cus tody of Thompson, a constable, who lives in the court. The Alderman was disposed to give the prisoner an opportunity of making . his peace with his landlady, and remanded him for fur ther exam►nation• BOW-STREET.—On Saturday, a girl, only fifteen years of age, was brought up for examination, charged with robbing her mother, a respectable looking woman, of a silver watch. From the evidence of the mother, it appeared that the habits of her un fortunate daughter were most depraved ; she had latterly associ ated with the lowest prostitutes, and had quitted her house save• rat times for days together. About three weeks since she ab sented herself, taking all her own clothes, money, and the watch. The Magistrates said, there appeared little hope of reclaiming her, and perhaps the best way would be to prosecute her. The poor woman, however, replied, she could not do that ; and be ing willing to pay for hei• support in the workhouse, the parish officers. would' probably take her : at least, she would once more try to reform her. The girl then left the office with her mother. QUEEN-SQUARE.—Saturday, Samuel Moore, a brass orna ment-maker, was placed at the bar on a charge of bigamy It appeared that the prisoner had deserted the woman he had been tnarried to last about two months ago, and had gone off with another woman, leaving her chargeable to the parish. A letter was handed to Mr. Gregorie, frotu a person named Adie, at Bir mingham, addressed to the prisoner, wherein he states, that he is unable to support the.prisoner's son, William, any longer, without assistance. Other letters were also read, which tended to chew that Adie had married the prisoner's first wife. Louisa Moore, the prisoner's second wife, deposed, that her maiden name was Cope, and that she was married to the prisoner about ten years ago, at the parish of St. John, Clerkenwell. There Were present at the marriage, Mrs. Compton, as bride's-maid, and the parish clerk, but she could not say whether either of those persons were now living. The prisoner had deserted her about two months ago. Mr. Geactoare—Did you know that the prisoner was a mar ried man when you married hint ? Witness—No, Sir, I did not. Woodberry, an officer, said, that when he took the prisoner into custody he confessed that he had been married before, but that his wife had left him, married again, and had a family ; and be alsoeaid, that he thought if his first wife chose to get Married, be had a right to marry also. Mr. Gottoosto said that there did not appear any doubt but that both the priioner and his wife had committed bigamy. The prisoner, in his defenCe, said, that he was married about fifteen years ago, at Birmingham, hut th a t hi s wife had left him, and 'parried a person who was courting her at the time he did. GaEGomr or d ere d We o db erry to go off immediately to Birmingh am, fora week. to collect witneeses, and order e d th e p r i so n e r to be remanded HATTON-GARDEN.—Three fellows, named B o d e k and Watts, were brought up for re-examination, on suspicion of being concerned in several daring burglaries. Mr. Sergeant Seu.on had no doubt they were all concerned in the robberies which had been effected ; h et i n the absence of ow might be considered positive evidence, he should sentence.them, under the. Police Art, to three months' imprisonment and hard la bour in the House of Correction. MARYLEBONE.— On Saturday, Jam es Y o u ng , and James Taylor, were charged • with having a serious disturbance on the night preceding, at the West Loudon Theatre. Mr. 11 0s airss, to check such conduct in future, should bold them to bail, themselves in SO/. each, and two sureties in 25/. each; and he should bind over Mr. Beverley, the Manager, to pro seente them at the next Sessions.
